AAbuzer9y ago
Hi Dear Mike When parent disposal subsidiary , and there is NCI at acquisition measured at FV and there is impairment at disposal date, is NCI a bear by proportion from that impairment when NCI calculate at disposal to deduct from net asset plus g/w at disposal date . for example : proceeds amount 4100, net assets at acqn 2350 net asset at disposal 3000,g/w at acqn 250 , impairment 60 at disposal date, NCI at acqn at FV 350 ,what gain on disposal is reported in the CSPL?

So why didn't you tell me that originally? :-( This looks to me like: Proceeds 4,100 Net assets at date of disposal 3,000 Percentage sold 85% 85% x 3,1000 = 2,550 Gain on disposal 550 Goodwill sold (250 - 60) 190 Group gain on disposal 360 OK?

I just forgot to mention the percentage initially sorry about that . I still did not understand how you calculate the group gain , and where is NCI at disposal also why you multiplied 85%*3100 .

The proceeds of sale is the amount that the parent receives from selling its holding in the subsidiary But the parent only owns 85% of the subsidiary shares so is only entitled to account for the sale of 85% of the subsidiary's net assets at date of disposal together with the whole of the impaired goodwill NCI on disposal disappears - they still own their 15% of the subsidiary's shares and therefore also their interest in the subsidiary's net assets OK?
